Temat: Top films of 2008

I've only watched some of them. Let me try and pick a few from the list (following the order on the list, but not necessarily agreeing with it):

- Don't mess with the Zohan (that's my kind of humor)
- Burn after reading (Coen bros did it again)
- Wall-E (for the child in me)
- The incredible Hulk (what a waste of time/money and Norton's talent)
- 10,000 BC (a big disappoitment)
- Hellboy II: The Golden Army (erm.. SFX and good one liners)
- Hancock (liked it)
- Sweeney Todd (not liked it)
- Indiana Jones & the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (helped me discover the true use for a fridge)
- Iron Man (not bad at all)
- Bond: Quantum of Solace (boh-ring)
- The Dark Knight (one man show, liked it a lot)Jarek A. edytował(a) ten post dnia 22.12.08 o godzinie 10:31

since you ask for the goodies, it definitely will be:

- no country for old men = just briliant

- burn after reading - coens know something about absurd humor

- sweeney todd - cos i've got a thing both for burton and depp

- wall-e = for my love to E.T.

- mamma mia = nice&light, good when you're down

- the dark knight = agreed with Jarek - one man show, Heath Ledger show

Horton Hears a Who!
No Country for Old Men (watched it twice)
How to Lose Friends & Alienate People
Wall-E (Eeeee-va... Wall-E...) :)
Mamma Mia

Have seen quite a few on the list, but I'm no movie fan, so maybe wasn't able to appreciate them.

Elegy
Two Days in Paris

My list is similar: (I don't watch Hollywood films unless forced to)

Die Welle -- new German cinema at its best

2 Days in Paris -- you don't burst out laughing but smile with thumbs up all the time :)

Paris -- virtually no plot to mention, but great ambiance and music

Elegy -- male pigs die hard!

Cztery noce z Anną -- a long film with stark, symbolic imagery; almost like a good 60s production

Quantum of Solace -- no matter what they do with the franchise, I'll always love itAdam L. edytował(a) ten post dnia 22.12.08 o godzinie 20:48

I feel like I haven't lived this year.

Quantum of Solace was better than Casino Royale imo.
The ending of this Bond was cool.
The high security facility(!) (like a modern castle) which exploded with a sparkle from a match was uncool.

I've seen Wanted (not in cinema though), it sucks. Yes, Angelina Jolie sucks too. I wonder how did they convince Morgan Freeman. He was the only cool thing in the movie.

Wall-E is brilliant.
Against Wall-E's "Eeee-va?!", bloody female robot's annoying "Wal-EeeE!" sums up the men/women relationships nicely.
I hate you all. :))

i see no connection.

i enjoyed 2 days in paris almost as much as i did enjoy Paris (don't know the English name but it's this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwROhrqTyi8&feature=rel... 0 yes, i'm in love with the main character)

yes, Elegy was good but considering the fact that I've seen '33 scenes from life' a couple of week before I think that if a Polish director would shoot this movie - it would be a distaster.

hmm... I guess we are (I am?) used to annoying boyfriends. The one in the film was at least intelligent... ;)

no country for old men: is that really a 2008 film?

If it is, that would be my choice.

Closely followed by: le scaphandre et le papillon
